“Healthy foods offer nutrients that supply the body with energy. A good diet helps improve energy levels for training, concentration and recovery rates after hard workouts. It can profoundly impact swimming performance and general well-being.”
NutritionTracker with USA Swimming
Using the Swimmer Profile with USA Swimming athletes can create their own Nutrition Tracker.

This Personal Nutrition Tracking System is designed to provide swimmers with an opportunity to have their diet evaluated for energy and nutrient content. Use it to:
  • Look up a single food item to see what's in it.
  • Enter an entire day's food intake to see how much carbohydrate, protein, fat and calories you consumed.
  • Compare what you ate to your individual needs.
  • Enter a recipe to see a nutrient breakdown per serving.
  • Track your habits throughout the season and off-season.
  • And More!...

Reminder of Responsibilities and Requirements:
The Nutrition Tracker program is only as good as the information it is given. To ensure accuracy, each swimmer is responsible for entering data that is true and correct.

TRAINING TIPS!
Feed that body right!
